Issues with stomach pain and dehydration

Surgery
Gastric Sleeve
The surgery for Gastric sleeve was 3 weeks ago. My daughter does not feel like eating because of pain and nausea.
She passed out and needed to go to the hospital emergency for rehydration and tests. They say the operation appears normal with no blockages after catscan.
She was released but she is still in pain and very despondant.
Has anyone had similar experiences?

Hello, I don't really have any advise except maybe reach out to the surgeon. They should be able to help.
I hope she feels better soon!
 
I was sent home from the hospital with scripts for generic Zofran, Omeprazole, and Colace for nausea, heartburn, and a stool softener. I would have her check with her medical team for help with that. Hope she begins feeling beter soon, so she can get in her 64-80ozs of water and 60+gms of protein daily. Good luck.
 
What does her surgeon say? 3 weeks out sounds a little long to be in so much pain still. But that’s a personal opinion. If she hasn’t reached out to her team, she should.
